When oil is removed or leaked into the ocean, water fills in the void left by the escaping oil and sludge, it implodes upon it's self. I believe very strongly that the BP oil leak caused various changes in our Gulf of Mexico, we will probably be seeing a lot more of these sink holes appearing in the lands surrounding the Gulf. We will never really know the extent of damages caused by the BP leak, we are just starting to see the changes it has made, killing wildlife, probably mutating some, causing sinkholes to and gradually causing earthquakes along the Mississippi River from the Gulf on Up to the Great Lakes, any Ecologist reading this please give me some input and your point of views. Thank you, and may God have mercy on us and our planet.

How does sandstone mining impact the earth?
All types of mining are bad for the earth because it takes valuable metals, minerals, and rocks out of the ground. This can lead to problems like earthquakes and sinkholes.
What cuvses caves caverns and sink holes?
Caves, caverns, and sinkholes are typically formed by the dissolution of soluble rocks such as limestone, dolomite, or gypsum by water. Over time, water erodes and dissolves the rock, creating underground cavities and passages. Eventually, these cavities can collapse or become exposed at the surface, forming caves, caverns, and sinkholes.
